It is hoped that the foregoing information satisfactorily answers your inquiry.
Sincerely yours,

situations of nonpayment of legal debts:
. A CO's action in the case of an officer should be
governed by the article on performance of officer
members.
. Enlisted members should be counseled under the
provisions for discharge of enlisted members for
reasons of misconduct. When considered to be in the
interest of systematizing the management of the
member’s financial affairs, it maybe suggested that the
member submit to the CO a statement of monthly
finances and outstanding obligations.
. COs should submit to the Chief of Naval
Personnel (PERS-8) a full report of circumstances in
connection with any petition in bankruptcy, discharge in
bankruptcy, or approved wage earner’s plan concerning
any member of their command.
